Hotel Linen Supplier for Amsterdam Hotels & Canal Properties

The Netherlands is an EU member and applies the common external tariff of 12% MFN on hotel linen (HS 6302) from India. Rotterdam is the EU's largest port — many importers across Europe clear goods through Rotterdam and distribute onward. VAT at 21% (Netherlands BTW) applies on the CIF value at import. Origin documentation (EUR.1 or REX declaration) is required for customs clearance.

Ocean freight from Cochin (COK), India to the Port of Rotterdam is 20–26 days via the Suez Canal — one of the well-established shipping lanes with multiple weekly sailings. Rotterdam to Amsterdam is approximately 70 km (45 minutes by road or rail). Combined with 35–45 day production, total delivery from order to Amsterdam is approximately 58–74 days.

Amsterdam's hotel landscape includes both global luxury chains (Four Seasons, Waldorf Astoria, Pulitzer — the iconic canal house hotel) and the distinctive Dutch boutique canal hotel segment (De L'Europe, The Dylan, Hotel V). Canal house hotels typically require compact, high-quality 550–600 GSM towels and 400TC sateen sheets for their heritage room formats. We supply across all segments.
